THE STEPS:
1. Spam Farms Or Sawmills.
Pick one and go with it. You will want at lest 25. Do note that many people will be BUYING food to support their armies, so selling the wood for food will start to give diminishing returns. Personally, I’m going for farms.
2. Max the research.
Whatever resource you go for, wood or food, you will want to max the research for that resource. You will also want max Horseback Ridding and Logistics, but I’ll cover that later.
3. Space Out Your Villages.
You don’t want to have all your villages clustered together; as then, you will be competing for resources with yourself. Space them out and destroy one of your barracks and replace it with a max level relief station. That way, you can shift your troops around very quickly even though they aren’t close together. One barracks is a small price to pay to keep your troops alive.
4. Optimize Your Valleys.
Take over only high level valleys that correspond with your chosen resource. Since your cities are spaced out, this will be much easier. Remember, valleys can change their level during the server maintenance. Just wait before taking them over, and they’ll become higher.
5. Make A Super Politics Hero In Each City.
Spam attack high level NPCs with your politics hero in order to boost his/her level. This, obviously, works best on Lv. 10’s. Just be sure to send more ballista then usual to compensate for the hero’s lower attack score. Once he/she is at an uber level, make them the mayor again. You might want a backup politics hero to use as a temporary mayor until this step is done.
6. Setup NPC Farming Trains.
This part uses an over looked fact. NPC farming wasn’t nerfed, it was tweeked. If you have several high level NPCs in your area, then make one massive NPC farming force. If you have several smaller ones, then make two or even three smaller ones. Do this in every city, and start farming NPCs on a rotating basis, i.e. attack the closest, then the next closest, and then the next….Having Horseback Ridding and Logistics at max level will speed this process up. Simply make a list of what cities you have attacked today, and ignore them untill they recharge. If you want to mass your army in just one city, then just transfer the farmed resources to your HQ. Taking over high level flats, and turning them into NPCs will help this.* NPCs now regen the following per hour…**
Level 1: 4.1k Level 2: 8.2k Level 3: 37.5k Level 4: 67k Level 5: 125k Level 6: 167k Level 7: 187.5k Level 8: 334k Level 9: 584k Level 10: 792k
That’s it. Depending on what you build, and how good you get at this, you should be able to get around 500k in each city. Sure, this takes some effort, but at least no one can complain that you’re getting something for nothing now.
- Please not that I have not listed turning the smaller players into NPCs for farming as a part of this as I personally don’t support this. It is, however, what many players will do to make this even more effective.

good advice oh im from sever 132 so coords are 604,70 so mail me if u want
i personally think going for farms is something stupid to do…first of all it is NEVER possible to keep food production positive even if you have your city filled with level10 farms and Level 10 Agriculture..just think how the hell you are going to feed 400,000 archers,you only need about 90,000 archers to attack a level10 npc with a 2k foot troop rainbow,and transporters and 1 hit on level10 npc give you 19million food,get your freakin lumber production up and do smart trades..and i also think doing the setting tax rate to 100 is stupid because you do a pray yes but what about your population?if i get 7,000 gold by 100% tax rate and pray costs me 8,000 tell me what makes sense in that,and anyway go farm for gold ,fill up your town hall slots and farm low level flats if you are beginner or still have low number of troops REMEMBER SCOUT FIRST THAN ATTACK ON LEVEL4 VALLEYS AND UP
flats might give you anything(gold,lumber,iron,stone)if in the beginning you fill your city with farms where will you get lumber and iron which are usually are sold at very very high price ?(stone is sold at low price i don’t keep any quarry)even a level5 npc give you 3 million food ! but anyway that is only my way of playing and my mates way of playing who have ruled Evony along with me.
here is a farming npc guide :

-Thanks,LiLAus
sorry about the tax rate thing..its just i see it every where posted on other sites..just giving out advices
Thanks, bro…my troops love to eat!
ballista to attack level 10 npc? No Maybe when evony first started but things have changed. Now you hit a level 10 npc with 2k worker, 2kwarrior, 2kscouts, 2k transports and 92k archers. Only advisable if you have maxed yours stats in academy out and have a good hero with around 180 attack.
Not for beginners. Level 5 npc’s are the easiest as they give the most and you lose no troops
